While I was busy, being busy, I missed my one year blog anniversary (which happens to coincide with my birthday). I can't believe that I went as long as I did without having a blog. I so enjoy keeping track of my projects and looking back to see what I was doing last year. Here's my very first post: A great birthday present
In terms of the garden, there is a huge difference between where the bulbs were then and where they are now. The fox tail lilies were in full flower last year, but they are nowhere near out this year. Such a difference in the weather we have had!
In fact, much of the garden is being eaten alive by a plague of slugs and snails. The wet weather has made them so happy! The pot of pinks below was covered in baby snails...
The only upside of the vile weather is of course that I can happily wear as much knitwear as I like. Today I've got 2 sweaters, a shawl, socks and a hat - thus keeping myself just under the maximum 5-item limit for avoiding crazy-knitting-lady status. Not that I'm bothered if it's keeping me warm!
